Bath two hours before bed? Cold before bed?

[BriGecko]

My bearded dragon ate a piece of expanding foam. Warm baths were suggested to help him pass it.

My question is, would it be okay to give him a bath tonight (9:30pm) if it's over with by 10pm and his lights go out at 12am? 12am is normal for him.

Would that be enough time for his body temperature to rise and for him to dry off completely before bed?

Thank you in advance if you can help!

Yup that would be perfectly fine. Make the water a little warmer than you would for a baby (not hot enough to burn him just warm). This will keep his body temp up and help loosen things up a little. the added 2 hours of basking time should be plenty of time to get him nice and settled in for the night

No need to thank me at all, I'm just glad I could be somewhat helpful.
How is your little guy doing today?
